Skills

Finding the right candidate is a win. Capturing how you did it makes it repeatable, and that's a Skill. Save the workflows you use again and again, a sourcing brief format, an evaluation rubric, a reporting structure, and reuse them in any Task instead of describing the same requirements from scratch each time.

What are Skills

A Skill is a set of saved instructions that tells Mira how to handle a recurring job: your intake questions, an evaluation rubric, a client-ready write-up format, even which tools to run and in what order. Mira runs the job end to end rather than treating it as a one-off prompt. Skills come in two kinds:

• Official Skills: built and maintained by the Mira team, listed in the Official tab. More on these below.
• Personal Skills: created by you, visible only to your account.

Your best recruiter's method doesn't have to stay at one desk. Saved as a Skill, it can be exported and shared so the whole team follows the same method or workflow, and it gets more effective each time you refine it.

Official Skills

Official Skills are built and maintained by the Mira team and appear in the Official tab. You don't create or maintain them, you just use them, like reaching for a play a senior colleague already wrote. Reach for one when your task matches it: running a saved play is faster and more consistent than describing the same steps from scratch. You invoke an official Skill the same way as any Skill, or let Mira auto-apply it (see Invoke a Skill below). The Mira team adds official Skills over time, so your Official tab shows the ones enabled for your account.

skill-creator

The one official Skill you'll reach for again and again is skill-creator: it builds and edits your own Skills through conversation, with no files to write.

• What it does: describe a workflow in plain language, and skill-creator turns it into a Skill, drafting the instructions for you.
• How to use it: in your Skills settings click New Skill, then Create via Chat (Mira opens a Task running skill-creator), or type /skill-creator in any Task. See Create a Skill for the full flow. To revise a chat-created Skill later, open it and choose Edit through conversation.
• When to use it: when you have a repeatable process, an intake checklist, an evaluation rubric, or a client-ready report format, and want it saved as a reusable Skill without editing a SKILL.md by hand.

Invoke a Skill

1. Click the Skills button in the Task input toolbar, or type /. A skill picker appears with your available Skills; View all skills takes you to your Skills settings.
2. Pick a Skill, or keep typing to filter by name.
3. Describe the specifics of this run and send. The Skill name appears as a chip in your message, and Mira follows the Skill's instructions for the Task.

Mira can also apply a relevant Skill automatically: every Skill carries a short description, and when your request matches it, Mira routes to that Skill on its own.

Create a Skill

Open your Skills settings (Settings, then Skills) and click New Skill. There are two ways:

Create via Chat. Mira opens a new Task with the official skill-creator Skill, which turns the workflow you describe into a Skill through conversation. When the draft is ready, Mira delivers it as a card in the conversation; preview it and click Add to my skills to save it.

Import File. Drop in a .md, .skill, or .zip file (up to 10 MB). Mira parses the SKILL.md frontmatter and shows a preview with the Skill's name, trigger, source, and files; click Add to save it. A Skill package contains:

• SKILL.md, required: frontmatter with the Skill ID (slug) and a short description (up to 1024 characters; Mira uses it to decide when to auto-apply the Skill), followed by the instructions in markdown (up to 100 KB).
• Optional scripts/, references/, and assets/ folders for supporting files.

If the name collides with one of your existing Skills or an official Skill, rename it in the SKILL.md frontmatter and upload again.

The Skill detail page

Open any Skill in your Skills settings to see its detail page: the description, its source, how it triggers (such as Auto Routing), when it was created and last updated, whether it was created by upload or by chat, and the Skill's files (tap a row for a read-only preview). From here you can:

• Edit the SKILL.md directly; changes take effect when you save.
• Edit through conversation: hand the change to skill-creator, and Mira continues in a Task and applies it for you.
• Export the Skill as a .skill file.
• Delete it permanently. This removes SKILL.md and everything under scripts/, references/, and assets/, and can't be undone.

Manage your Skills

Your Skills settings list everything in two tabs, Official and Personal.

Enable or disable any Skill with its toggle; disabled Skills aren't used. Everything else, editing, exporting, and deleting, happens on the Skill's detail page.

FAQ

What official Skills are available?

The Official tab lists the Skills the Mira team provides and has enabled for your account, including skill-creator, which helps you create and edit your own Skills through conversation. New official Skills appear there as the Mira team releases them.

Can I share a Skill with teammates?

There's no built-in sharing yet. Export a Skill as a .skill file, and anyone can import it from their Skills settings via New Skill and Import File. This is how a personal Skill gets passed on and used across the whole team.
